It was only ten months ago when PokerStars celebrated their 40 billionth hand being dealt and now they are about to deal their 50 billionth hand. As the site has historically done, the 50 billionth hand and milestone hands leading up to it are packed with rewards for players.
Starting from hand number 49,700,000,000 and up to hand 50,000,000,000 every incremental millionth hand will award $50 to any player that is in that specific hand per every VPP they earned in the previous 50 hands. If you happen to be the winner of that hand, PokerStars will double that stated amount. When the 50 billionth hand is dealt, all players involved in that milestone hand will receive $500 for every VPP they earned in the previous 50 hands and the winner of that hand will get double that bonus amount. To add icing to the cake, every player dealt in the 50 billionth hand will also receive an entry into the Main Event of the WCOOP on September 26th valued at $5,200.
For players that don’t partake in cash games there are Sit & Go Tournaments offering awards for winners. From September 10th to 25th there are 50 player Sit & Go Tournaments with buy-ins ranging from $1.10 up to $55. All winners of the tournaments will win a piece of $50,000.
PokerStars is also offering freeroll tournaments where, once again, players can win their share of a $50,000 prize pool. For players new to PokerStars all they need to do is make a real money deposit using the bonus code “freeroll50” to qualify for the tournament. For current players they can reload their account using bonus code “50BN” and receive their ticket into the freeroll.
The PokerStars VIP club, in conjunction with this celebration, is also offering a one time instant $50 cash credit for just 3,000 FPPs, an excellent return for any player with the FPPs in their account.
PokerStars is paying out some massive rewards to celebrate its 50 billionth hand as it truly is a monumental milestone for PokerStars.
Poker News Daily will be covering all the news about this promotion as it takes place.
